Is this a good one?
- Against others of its kind
- At $121 a day this sits a little under the $156 median for culinary. It is cheaper than 13 of the 18 culinary options mapped here.
- Other things to learn in Mexico
- 6 other options in Mexico, starting with spanish survival week in Oaxaca from $350.
- When to go
- Workable across 7 months of the year — Oct-Apr. Outside that the season is against you, not the school.
- How long it really takes
- Most people give it 7 days, but the honest range is 1 to 21. That spread is wide because how far you take it is up to you.
